  I want the comments section to always have the most recent comment on the top. No matter what I do, the first comment still stays there at the top. In this screen shot I show you where I clicked to select “Most recent comment shows at the top.”

  Go to your “Discussion” page, you’ll find the option to have “older or newer comments at the top” under “Other comment settings”.

  @lorna, allow me a stupid question, after changing the setting, you did save, correct?

  Please don’t clog up the forum with redundant threads this question could have easily been answered in your other thread…

  P.s. I also removed the un-needed HTML coding that was with your screen shot link…

  …and click on “save changes”. /facepalm

  First of all to Slikbonez: You are right about that. I checked and saw that I have two threads on this — I don’t know how that got by me, but it might just be advancing age. 8-( I am replying in this one because the latest post is most recent.

  About typing out my link: I typed it out because I noticed that clicking onto my gravatar link, the viewer is taken to my other (my first) blog, not this correct blog at (sorry to type it out, but:) http://peregrine5700.wordpress.com

  And to Sacredpath: :-) Yes, I did click Save. After not seeing any changes I went thru all of the usual checkpoints. Nothing worked.

  to JohnnyTesting and to Panos from that other thread I made:

  I just now went back to the Discussions page (in the Greyzed) theme and I did all of the Saves, Empty Caches, Quit Firefox. Below is a screen shot which shows that, as before, the darn thing has not changed and in my comments, the reply from the very first commenter, Rene Guerra, remains. Here now is my screen shot:

  Thank you……….

  I’m thinking this is also another issue that you ought to take to Staff. That’s because I cannot duplicate this issue on my test blog which is also in the Greyzed theme. http://en.support.wordpress.com/contact/
